[Albion] Team to play Cardiff

[N17]

Is this not on TV? I was looking forward to watching it!

First thing we need to do is make sure that we don’t get bullied, that team is probably the best to ensure that doesn’t happen except I’d have gone with Kayal over Propper.

I’d have gone with Kayal over Propper.

I remember when CH rested Kayal against Cardiff in the Championship. This happened.

It was then that we all realised how critical Kayal was to that team rather than Stephens.

Even BG is on board with starting Kayal tonight (he’ll, he’s even been praying) so hopefully, the leaked team is slightly wrong.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Deservedly so. Stains and Bmuff repeatedly counter attacked down our right, as Montoya was left 50 yards up field after another inept ‘attacking’ move. The number one duty of any FB is to defend; Montoya doesn’t.

Agreed

Bruno was one of very few positives from the Chelsea game.
The great man's demise has been very much overstated on these pages.

I'd have picked him over Montoya for every one of our recent games.

Not exactly true see post 61. I think Propper will come good again with Gross back in the side but if no Gross I would have played Kayal instead of Bissouma who I think has great potential but at times appears to be a liability with his losing the ball and bad decision making.

I hope Gem's team is right.

We'll be fine with that starting 11.

 

[BensGrandad]

My only concern with Bruno is whether the speed of Josh Murphy may be too much for him.

Is this the day Ali J scores his first goal and shows his worth?

Tend to agree. Bissouma is currently better suited to coming on as an impact sub rather than being relied on for 70 - 90 minutes, great potential but too risky for this type of game.

Ryan
Montoya - Duffy - Dunk - Bernardo
Kayal - Stephens - Propper
March - Murray - Izquierdo

Please not 4-3-3

 

[The Kid Frankie]

Assuming The Gem's team is correct - and I have had independent verification that it is, we are gambling/banking on Gross being back to full fitness and form.

I personally would go with the exact same team with exception of Izqueirdo instead of Ali J.

Proper nervous about tonight. Given all the predictions of a grim slug fest - I bet it's a goal fest...

0% chance of that but that’s what i would do, let’s attack a team for once.

433 is fine the problem is we play 451.

Let's make sure we don't concede with pace up front

Take the game to them and play to win convincingly. Cardiff are a relegation level squad we should be positive from the outset.

However expecting a miserable negative 4 5 1.

I think I'll need some man nappies if we start with that centre of midfield!

That would be my choice too with either Ali J or March on the wing. He won't do it though.

Not in a positive way because neither Propper or Gross can tackle.

Neither side is a top 6 team, so no it's not on TV.

Also a Champions League night so it'd never be allowed to be shown on TV. I didn't think we were even supposed to play top flight matches on Champions League nights.
